Amplifying the Female Voice

This episode was originally released in 2022. It is one of our favorites from the archives and a great one to revisit on Women's Day.

Why do women, the social architects of our lives, often find themselves sidelined in shaping the world’s most crucial narratives? In this episode, Indra Adnan, a renowned writer, psycho-social therapist, and political entrepreneur, shares her journey of empowering women to speak up, the importance of giving their work at home the status it deserves, and how her dual heritage has influenced her unique perspective on global issues.

[2:52] - To start the 6th season of Harvest Series podcast, Indra Adnan explains where we left Harvest last time, after a panel organised by Jamie Wheal with Gabor Maté, Wade Davies and Indra Adnan.

[5:50] - Indra on carrying a double heritage: Indonesian and Holland, two innovative countries.

[7:40] - Indra, as a master of the ceremony of Harvest, wanted to bring a feminine perspective on the actual crisis. Women are the social architects of our lives.

[12:50] - Why women are not that keen on being in front of the stage.

[15:20] - Why had Indra decided to be a pain in the ass, insisting that women are visible.

[16:50] - How was Indra Adnan's experience in politics in the UK, when she became an MP?

[19:30] - Indra, on stage in Kaplankaya, explains the concept of re-worlding.

[22:30] - Which advice does she give regarding storytelling? What about the story that women are powerless?

[25:10] - What does it mean, not to become the follower of someone else?

[31:20] - Harvest of the Day : if something easy could be done and make the world a better place, what would it be for Indra?

In two weeks, we will release Alexandre Tannous' interview in Kaplankaya, he is a sound healer, and he will explain the impact of the sounds on our brains. Don't miss the episode!
